Question

three pieces of ribbon measure 4 m 90 cm, 5 m 88 cm and 8 m 82 cm. Find the largest length of the rod which can measure each of the pieces in the exact number of times.

Answer 1

Answer:

Largest length of rod =19m60cm

Step-by-step explanation:

• firstly we make the all length of ribbon in same unit : first ribbon- 4m 90cm

4m +90/100m = 4.90m.

second ribbon-5m88cm =5m+88/100m= 5.88m

third ribbon-8m82cm=8m+82/100m= 8.82m

Then add all length :

4.90m+5.88m+8.82m= 19.60m

So, it is the largest length of rod .
